Skinny Girl Confession

So I try my hardest NOT to judge other people by their appearance which has served me pretty well my entire life. I guess being very skinny as a young child has always stuck with me.
There must me some written rule that women seem to have that says once you have a baby it is okay to be big or bigger than I was before I had the baby.
I was perfectly fine with this notion and wasn't expecting an amazing recovery after having my little girl.....
So here I am....Damned if I do...Damned if I don't
Women still seem to think its OKAY to comment when someone is SKINNY but it is not okay to comment when someone is FAT.
To save the embarrassment of the lovely ladies I hung out with on an overnight retreat I will spare them their pictures. But I kid you not the minute I was there I was told "wow you are really thin" ....to other side comments such as "push-up bra's, wonder-bras, you wouldn't understand because you are too thin" and the best is when I happened to say I liked chocolate fondue fountains.... "well of course you would because you are a waif, light as a feather"....
any of the above ever happened to you?
Thankfully being skinny is my problem...not yours so I guess all I need to say to them, or any other opening and brutally honest women "how would you like it if I commented on your weight every time I saw you?"
That's what I thought,
Now Ladies lets get back to reality EVERYONE has some sort of body issue....just don't blame yours on me!

First Time Thoughts

So here it goes
No journal is worth writing unless the whole world can see it? Am I Right?
Being a first time Mom has definitely thrown me into a completely different game that I was in before I had my baby.

I Love to sleep and when I sleep for 8-10 hours easy!
One day a little bug interrupted my sleep and I felt a little off.....now that bug is the one climbing over me and banging their head, feet or any body part hard enough to make me move!!!!!!!
So this is the start of my random thoughts and yes they do make some sense....mostly to other mommies who have no sleep as well!
Am I going crazy? or is it just the lack of sleep?
You tell me
